Default Hurt my pony....

well I was coming home from college today after getting stranded at school due to a snow storm, made it almost all the way home, got to the offramp for my town, half way up, the ramp was no longer plowed, I began to slide, was able to somewhat correct the car before I slammed into the center concrete divider. my cobra grille literally ejected and is now MIA, my corner lamp and headlight are broken, the header panel is cracked on the corner, the front bumper is all chewed up and the fender is fubared and shifted. the hood has a crack in the corner.

I feel sick and terrible.

pics will come in the morning. the car runs and everything just has some body damage...

6 of one, half a dozen of the other, i suppose.

almost made it the whole 160 miles... calling my ins company, the autobodyshop tomorrow
